The Street, Raydon, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP7

This property presents a unique opportunity to capitalize on an approved planning permission for a two-storey detached home, spanning approximately 1,560 sq ft, in the picturesque Suffolk village of Raydon. The design focuses on creating a harmonious living space that blends with the local architecture, complete with stunning views of the countryside at the rear. The proposed layout features two generously-sized bedrooms on the upper level, one equipped with an en-suite shower room, alongside a family bathroom. The ground floor is designed for modern living with open-plan areas ideal for entertaining, complemented by a dedicated home office and a separate sitting room. Prospective buyers can take advantage of this appealing plot to construct a customized residence while adhering to an established planning approval. Site visits can be arranged upon request. Connections to mains water, electricity, and drainage are available; however, there is no mains gas in the village. Buyers will have flexibility in selecting their heating system from options such as oil-fired, LPG, or air-source heating. Planning reference DC/24/05290 is available for review via Babergh Mid Suffolk District Council’s website or through the selling agents. The completed home must be occupied by the purchaser as per the Self-Build and Custom House Building Act 2015; this does not prevent hiring third-party builders. Construction must begin within six months following legal completion and should reach practical completion within thirty months. Raydon combines rural charm with convenient commuting options; London Stansted Airport is about an hour's drive away, and Manningtree Station offers mainline services to London in roughly 55 minutes.
